I don't think its "realness" was ever in doubt. It was more the fact that such an abomination made it to air in the first place.

The caption before indicates it was an independent production (and with a 1989 date clearly very early on in the generic era), and has been seen down the years all sorts of unusual variants of logos have appeared on indie produced shows, on both ITV and the BBC. Quite possible the indy knocked up that endcap themselves.

Yes though Anglia never actually used it on air did they? So maybe the production company were sent that logo before Anglia knew what they were going to do with it

Yeah, Anglia never used it, for two reasons. One, they'd only just introduced the A flag logo the previous year (they kept that ident right up until the 1999 generics came in), and two, the colours are incorrect.
